BIDCO APPRENTICE 

Mentorship 2021

      

We are happy to help lead in the Bidco Apprentice 2021 Mentorship Program; small group training with Dr. Vimal Shah and Senior Bidco Management, based on 10 foundational success sessions. 


    
Problem 


We address the following key problems; 

  •  Lack of strategic academic & career preparation in schools & colleges
  • Lack of clear academic pathways to careers
  • Emphasis on rote learning in schools
  • Lack of mentorship by principled, ethical leaders
  • Lack of comprehensive leadership development programs for youth
  • “Work Ready” youth on graduation!

There are few programs specifically designed to address the above. As a result, many youth have no clue as to their personal gifts, talents, skills and abilities – and therefore what career is best to pursue. Career decisions are made based on academic grades, college placement, guess-work, peer & parental pressure or media exposure and the lack thereof. Purely academic based examination systems are a poor measurement of a student’s retentive, analytical, moral and emotional intelligence – yet are the standard used in eliminating students when in competition for limited academic places.

Time: 9:00am - 1:00pm; 

Frequency: 3 times per week; Monday, Wed & Friday

Cost: Ksh 5,500/- per person per session, payable weekly.

Location: TBA
